This is beyond the scope of a xmail forum but:
a) does your external NIC have a valid IP? check with 'ipconfig /all'
b) does it have a valid gateway adress -> ping to your gateway
c) check your system logs & apps logs on win nt for resource porblems with
your external NIC

What kind of connection do you have to internet?? If adsl or cable check
with 'ipconfig /all' if you have recieved a valid IP from the upstream
DHCP-server. If not shut down your server for 30 mins and shutdown cable or
adsl box. refire the box and server. If you still wouldn't recieve a valid
IP adress; complain to your ISP.

PS a 'valid' IP is one you can ping from an other ISP.

Good luck

no, what would a DHCP server have to do with the network going dead on
my mail server?
